We're doing a combo of cloth and disposable diapers here - cloth during the day, and disposables at night since the peanut's very sensitive to wet diapers. Anyway, we've been trying to use the more eco-friendly diapers, but I haven't...

dad-to-be and mama-to-be should change to papa and mama, since that's what we are now! We're a bit shy of two weeks with the littles, and things are starting to resemble routine -- that is if you consider routine a...
